What is the name of your state? California:
I work for a major airline. Presently, this company only offers health insurance for full time workers. All of the full time employees at my station were told that, due to a change in the airline's flight schedules, our full time status would be eliminiated and we would go to part time. This also means that all the full time employees would lose their health care benefits. COBRA was offered but we feel this is unacceptable, non affordable and a short term solution at best. When we were offered these full time positions we were not told that this would be "seasonal" or temporary full time status. Is there any recourse?
